ARCHIVED Cramping From Milk
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
LOL. Gluten makes me feel almost slightly drunk or high, but not in a good way, with pains. Milk made me cramp up like crazy and unfortunately some veggies make me bloat up in my lower abdomen, peppers are one of the culprits and unfortunately I love them. -
ARCHIVED Tooth Enamel Question
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Were your spots from you braces? My spots are not were my braces were. Don't recall it being there after I got them removed in 6th grade. Also the discoloration between my teeth is concerning me because like I posted I floss 4-5 time a week and brush at least twice a day. -
ARCHIVED Cramping From Milk
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm not even diagnosed yet. But from what I'm reading, Celiac seems to be a major cause of it if you didn't have it your whole life. Crohn's as well. -
ARCHIVED Cramping From Milk
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Good then at least I'm not alone there. I never get abdominal pain from gluten. More like odd feelings and stomach noise, also makes me feel like im losing it. Dairy suprised the hell out of me though to be honest. Last time I had milk I didn't have this problem. -

Are you cramps from milk products more painful? -
ARCHIVED Cramping From Milk
scottyg354 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Anyone find that the cramping from Lactose is worse then the cramping from Gluten. Again I'm not sure if I'm celiac or not but my other symptoms from what ever are really annoying. Although, last night I reacted to milk and had the worst cramps I've had in years. Was curled up in a ball for 2 hours. It's starting to make me wonder because I've never reacted... -

I never get severe stomach pains. Well except for tonight, but apparently milk caused that. I usually got odd stomach pains that are hard to explain. -
ARCHIVED Lactose Question
scottyg354 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ok guys, here is my dillema, a couple days ago I had a milk shake and really had no problems maybe a few gurlges but thats it, so I figured today it would be ok to drink a glass of milk. Now I am having the worse cramps I've had in a long time. This ever happen to anyone,I mean eating like an ice cream product and not having an issue, but milk causing an... -

I don't know why either. I'm just going with whatever he wants right now. He's a decent doctor, hears me out and doesn't blow me off like i'm nuts so thats a good thing in itself. He wants to make sure everything in my colon is alright then he is going to have me tested for other stuff. Was concerned about the color of my bm's and the smell. Also, as... -
Anyone ever have sore calves. Mine are sore 90% of the time, weather I am active or not. I have had my Blood Sugar testes and don't believe it is diabetic neuropathy.

ARCHIVED In Desperate Need Of Some Positivity :/
scottyg354 replied to zebaldwin's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Watch packaged/processed meat. I was on the Gluten Free diet for about 2 weeks (had to go back on due to upcoming testing). I had a salad with processed turkey on it and was sick as a dog for 2 days. Just a heads up. Did you say all your bloodwork came back fine. I know my thyroid was a little wonky. -
ARCHIVED Tooth Enamel Question
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Is this common in adults? Because these spots really didn't start showing up until I was about 17-18. Shortly after I started feeling pretty ill. -
ARCHIVED Tooth Enamel Question
scottyg354 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I have been reading that Celiac can effect tooth enamel. Along with all the other symptoms, this is something that has plagued me for quite some time. I had braces, but not where the white spots are located. I am also starting to get discolored between my teeth. Please note I brush 2-3 times daily and floss 4-5 times a week and use listerine. Anyways... -

scottyg354 replied to Igg postive's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm not exactly diagnosed and I'm back on gluten until the end of the month getting a colonoscopy (not for Celiac Testing) and testing done to test for intolerances and malabsorption.) Symptoms I'm having been dealing with for a long time are: GI Symptoms (Had them for about 7 years!) Diarrhea-Constipation-Flat/Ribbony Stools (Sometimes my stools are... -
ARCHIVED Gurgle, Gurlge, Gurgle

Anyone ever get any gurgling in their lower back, right above the cheeks, around your tailbone. This drive's me nuts. Phazyme seems to kick it in the butt though. -
ARCHIVED Elevated Tsh
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Me too been a crazy few years. I hope its something easily fairly easy to manage like Celiacs, and not an IBD. -
ARCHIVED Elevated Tsh
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The meds did lower my TSH down to like 3 but I'm still feeling bad, with GI problems and skin issues. Only thing they really helped with was sleeping all day and night. -
Well guys, been a few days since I posted. Quick question. Is it possible that Celiac could have caused my TSH to rise to 8.5. I am on levothyroxine and have felt pretty bad for years like maybe 6 or 7. Levothyroxine seemed to help at first but now I am back to square one. I cut out Gluten for a week and half and thought I felt better, but I am going for...

ARCHIVED Testing Starting Soon Again. Need Some Support
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My GP is a good guy. Best I've had so far. Watched my mom go through the ringer with the last guy, we all thought she was going to die and he was just blowing it off. She would sleep day in and day our for like 6 months, turns out she had a severe staph infection. Took that long and for her to be in agony until some one found it. Colon Cancer is scary... -

scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
All I know is I'm tired of feeling like poop. Excuse my language. So I'm glad that I at least I have some testing coming up, everything lately has beengetting overwhelming. -
ARCHIVED Testing Starting Soon Again. Need Some Support
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
No, my GP just wants to make sure everything in my colon is alright due to the alternating D and C. He said he knows about the Celiac blood tests and everything and we can do that after the scope. So if thats the case, I guess I might as well stay on Gluten until the test is complete. -
ARCHIVED Testing Starting Soon Again. Need Some Support
scottyg354 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
So I got to get a colonoscopy on March 30 and am a little nervous. Doc said it sounds like i'm not absorbing properly, due to the fact that I have yellow and orange stools regardless of what I eat at least 3-4 times a week. He said after the colonoscopy, if everything is clear he is going to have the GI start running other tests. He said Celiac testing as... -
ARCHIVED Off My Diet
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well I am self diagnosed, but i guess i got my answer today that maybe I should avoid it as i've had D all day and pretty much feel like crap. -
I've only been one the gluten free diet for about a week and half and I did start to notice some drastic changes, even tho I am self diagnosed. Stomach issues didn't really clear up, but my focus and fatigued drastically got better as well as some of my aches and pains. Anyways, like an idiot I figued I'd do one last horrah with my buddies this weekend...

ARCHIVED Off The Wall Question
scottyg354 replied to scottyg354's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm talking like when I stopped gluten I felt pretty good. Like a dodo I ate some this weekend and now today my stomach is making crazy noises, I have D and I feel like I'm spacey and going cross eyed
